It isn't MS's scandal to begin with, and was wildly taken out of proportion....by people like you. In this case, yes I do fell I can judge you based on your irrationality on this matter given how MS has put all concerns to rest at this point.You are assuming the worst with 0 Xbox related base to draw upon.

You are arguing theoreticals and dodging the point. Focus on your phone and internet records. Your gaming console is safe. MS has fully cooperated in saying exactly what they divulge. XBox isn't among them, and kinect can be tweaked to your liking.

Well then, I think you're a bit arrogent to judge me, and to belittle my beliefs. You're being no different then an Athiest insulting Christians.

While these concerns may be put to rest for you, it's not the case for everyone. This is why we still see threads, and news reports about the matter.

You're dodging the point that when One releases, people will be interested in seeing the inside of your home, and getting information on the physical appearance about the person behind the keyboard. People will be interested to scan for key words over One, just like NSA already does over phone calls. It's only a matter of time before this information is compromised, and yes it probably won't be my information that's compromised, but it will be for others.

Kinect can't be tweaked to my liking, it physically has to be plugged in while I run my one. This isn't to my liking. It may be over the top to you, but MS already has your attention, and will likely sell a One to you. It's people like me which MS needs to convince, not you.

We see news on this because there are still people like you who spew your now baseless ideas to gullible potential buyers.

360 Kinect is untouched in terms of privacy violations. That right there is a good base to say that you are playing out a worst case scenerio.......just because.

I can't stress this enough, you can be plugged in and still be off. This is confirmed.
